The Coefficient of Drag Present on Varying Car Front End Designs in a Wind Tunnel

In our experiment, we set out to determine which shape would create the lowest coefficient of drag. The shapes that we tested were the rectangular block, wedge, parabolic wedge, and hyperbolic wedge. We concluded that the parabolic wedge had the lowest coefficient of drag due to its design.
